The Manaslu region, located in the remote west-central part of Nepal, offers some of the most rugged and breathtaking landscapes in the Himalayas. Dominated by Mount Manaslu (8,163 meters), the eighth-highest peak in the world, this area is less crowded than other trekking regions, making it perfect for those seeking a more off-the-beaten-path adventure. The Manaslu Circuit Trek is the highlight of the region, a challenging yet rewarding route that circles Mount Manaslu, passing through remote villages, ancient monasteries, and stunning high-altitude landscapes. Another notable trek is the Tsum Valley Trek, which leads to a hidden valley with a unique Tibetan-influenced culture. Both treks offer incredible mountain views, diverse ecosystems, and a chance to experience authentic rural life in Nepal’s most isolated regions.
